Has anyone here seen the Canucks play live this year?
- Nucker101

My first live game. Beat Colorado in last seconds.

I think the Eriksson contract so far is the only bad one
- VANTEL

Yup.... but even then i don't think that its as bad as it looks right now. Its no callaghan or brown... close but he is a solid 2 way player who if playing with a better center and used as a net front presence by the coach will see his numbers rise.

Damn coach is ruining our vets to better the rookies.... he should be ruining our rookies to better our vets.

I don't like the Sutter one and have a bad feeling about EG. otherwise, I agree.

I think Sutter gets a lot of abuse . He is playing with sh1t talent on his wings and he is still 3 rd in goals and and 5 th in points.

The other night playing with Goldobin they looked dangerous.

This makes no sense to what was said. Plus typical crap shooting when you got nothing substantive to say. The subject was on quoting the confirmation of Nighthawk's point on effect to the cap. That's a logic base truth. Your opinion on direction is a preference. Which was also confirmed in the post. Again you are baseless in your response to what was said.

As for the rest there is a difference between incompetence and tanking. Two very different concepts. One a concerted effort to achieve a negative result (tanking). The other the result of an effort gone wrong (incompetence).

I do like you have optimism for next season turning a corner. Sounds like you are a draftist and not a toilet flusher. Not what most are saying and what the self proclaimed tankers want.

WTF you just say?


NO.... can't contain..... I just don't..... Ffffffuuuukkkk


Argh!


Stolen links but it works....

Yeah, i'm on the fence. He's also deployed as a defensive center. His numbers in that role aren't great, but the team just is bad. I'm willing to say: it's mostly LE. But we've got lots of contracts and that deal has me a bit worried.

What do you mean sh*t talent?
He's got Megna & Chaput as his wingers tonight. Had this happened at the start of the season we would be celebrating another Presidents Trophy.

i mentioned this to you yesterday, but do you ever read your posts?
Apart from trying to be so hard to be pedantic that they actually don't make sense (don't try so hard), you use words like logic without actually making inferences based on anything tangible. LE's term (6 years), age (32) and performance (brutal) this year are all tangible premises to say: that was a poopty signing on JB's part.

Of course I have optimism: we've ended up with a top5 pick for two years in a row. This is how the last 6 Stanley cup champion teams have been built. I have faith that JB will get great players in the first two rounds, hopefully someone slides out of the first that he really likes.

There is also a difference between incompetence and having a poop team. Before the season, poop before last season, the writing was on the wall. Journalists across the country have been saying this is a bottom 5 team, we finished bottom 5 last year and this year. While maybe it would be fine to dismiss a few of these opinions as bias, but when literally the entire community of professionals reach consensus... So yes, I don't want to see a team overperforming only to miss the playoffs and end up wit ha top15 instead of top5 pick.

I guess going off topic and making points on issues that weren't discussed is a common theme for someone who doesn't read the post. With your personal retort it's obtuse to think you are making a point that wasn't even looked at or of topic. The part you objected to was whether LE was a good signing. Different issue. The part I commented on was Nighthawk's point on effect on cap. That was an objective logic of facts. As opposed to your subjective stance. You are entitled to it. Just not what was said or on topic.

The rest you go into other tangents on past merits. Have at it. Has nothing to do with the topic presented. At least you are a noble draftist and not a toilet flusher (tanker) with your outlook. That's good to know you have a substantive and positive outlook for the furture of this team.

Now Megna, that man has a gigantic set of balls, true type a Alpha, next captain and a generational talent.

Hee ness to sit the twins down and tell them how to play the game. Nuck it, Megna should be the coach and play next year.

I watched the other night Tryamkin and Hutton trying to hurry up a pass from behind the goal line cough up the puck on a bad clear . It goes right to the other teams point. Our two wingers are heading up the ice and Sutter ties up a player in front. Miller was soft that night and the puck went in . Immediately Twitter saying (frank)en Sutteron on for another goal

Sutter is food stamps Kesler. Where he ranks on this team in terms of scoring is nothing to get excited about... Lots of TOI & opportunity that he wouldn't get on a deeper squad.

Thats totally a big hit, he makes the young d look good; and they do the opposite as young guys are going to make mistakes.

Idk why even dwelling about Sutter matters at this juncture.
Last season a write off with injuries & this years constant roster upheavals has us where we r. Depth concerns didn't leave many options for a 3C.

Again. Read your posts, read them out loud. It's (frank)ing embarrassing dude. I'm going to stop feeding you. I honestly think you have some good, insightful posts. But it's like 1/20 the way you spew nonsense, attempting to sound smart and lashing out.
